Tattoo Removal

  • Tattoo Removal

    Tattoo removal breaks down ink particles in the skin so the body's immune system can remove them. The most common method is laser tattoo removal, which uses a laser to heat and shatter the ink. 

    Numb the skin: With ice 20 minutes prior to the procedure

    Apply the laser: A powerful laser pulse shatters the ink. 

    Repeat: Multiple sessions are usually required to lighten or remove the tattoo. 

    The number of sessions needed depends on the tattoo's size, color, and depth of ink, as well as the patient's skin color. Some colors of ink are harder to remove than others. 

    After laser treatment, the skin may swell, blister, or bleed. Antibacterial ointment can help with healing.

FAQ"S 〰️

Tattoo Removal FAQ’s

  • Laser energy is delivered to the tattoo, targeting the ink and breaking it down into smaller particles. The particles are eliminated through the body’s natural processes resulting in a lightening of the tattoo ink.

  • For many patients, the feeling of laser tattoo removal has been compared to what it feels like when getting a tattoo, however it is very fast. Your practitioner will work with you on the best comfort option based on your individual situation.

  • The number of laser treatments needed for tattoo removal is dependent on a number of variables such as ink type, size of the tattoo, location on the body, type of laser used, lifestyle habits, etc. During your consultation, a practitioner will evaluate your tattoo and recommend a realistic treatment regime to help you achieve the best results.

  • While it typically takes 4-8 weeks for the body to absorb the ink particles, every patient and tattoo responds differently. Following the recommended post treatment protocol will likely improve the results and reduce the chance of small adverse events.

  • The ideal clinical endpoint for the tattoo treatment is an immediate slight whitening or “frosting” of the skin, however that will subside immediately after the treatment is complete. Other observable effects include mild swelling and redness. Your practitioner will direct you on how best to keep the area moist.

  • Until the launch of Pico technology, Q-Switched lasers had been considered the gold standard for removing tattoos. Q-Switched laser treatments use thermal energy to heat up and break apart the ink. Pico technology is far advanced and superior to that of traditional lasers.

  • Tattoos can be lightened in preparation for a cover-up tattoo. Your practitioner may have you wait six weeks between your last treatment and when you have the new tattoo completed.

  • The cost of laser tattoo removal depends on several factors, including the size of tattoo and the number of treatments it will require. Most insurance companies will not cover laser tattoo removal since it is considered an elective cosmetic procedure. After your consultation, your practitioner will provide you a price estimate for the treatment series.
